Fallon broached the topic, saying, "I want to talk to you about this because I saw this online last year or something like that. Someone -- a skateboard company was selling a skateboard with a picture of your high school yearbook picture on it."

Sevigny swiftly replied, "That did happen. Yeah, a couple of times, yes," Sevigny confirmed, shedding light on the curious phenomenon of her high school yearbook photo gracing the decks of skateboards.

Fallon, intrigued, inquired if she knew about it beforehand, and the actress noted, "Of course! I had to give them my blessing. Permission, you know."

The story took an interesting turn as Sevigny added, "I do, yeah. Jason Dill. He was a very famous pro skater. He was on 'The Osbornes,' painted as, like, the 'F up,' you know, a friend of Jack, if anyone remembers," shedding light on the board's origin story. 

Sevigny explained that a Dill, who started his own company called F**king Awesome, had a penchant for featuring pro skaters' school photos on boards. When he stumbled upon Sevigny's high school portrait, he was captivated, exclaiming, "Oh, my, God, that's amazing. Can we put it on a skateboard?"

She humorously noted, "I'm not a pro skater, but, you know, I'm pro skaters, so, yes."

Subsequently, Fallon held up a glittery pink skateboard with the high school yearbook of Sevigny to the audience, noting, "It sold out in seconds. It's like the hottest thing in the world."

He exclaimed, "Look at it! Come on... How cool are you? Come on!" 



 

"It's pretty flattering. It's pretty good. You know, we need more girls in the skateboard world," expressed Sevigny, highlighting the positive impact of her unexpected foray into the skateboard scene.

Unexpectedly, Fallon proceeded to pull up a green skateboard with his black-and-white high school yearbook photo and remarked, "This one’s still available. Yikes! What was he trying to do there?" leaving the 'Boy's Don't Cry' star and the audience in splits.
